Ingredients
- 3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (see Tip)
- 1 1/4 cup low-fat milk
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 tbsp grated lemon zest
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat a muffin tin with cooking spray.

Divide the mixture among the prepared muffin cups, about 1/3 cup each. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes.
